We were in a real bind, since we were moving and had 10 between leaving one place and getting access to the second. Our host was extremely understanding and sympathetic and allowed up to bring all 5 of our animals. Obviously, we disclosed everything and worked this out in advance. She is a life saver. The house was very nice, clean, and had everything we needed. Including a place for our pets to stay. Highly recommend.

The host is super responsive. House is clean, safe and on a quiet street near a great Italian deli. A good choice for my quick trip to Akron.

Sweet little bungalow. Great for couples or families. If over 6 foot, maybe not the best fit. One member was 6'5" and barely fit up the stairs, but perfect for the rest of us! Very cozy with lots of blankets available for cuddle time! Window AC units worked well. Easy location with Italian food at the end of the street and great donuts a few blocks away. Off street parking was a plus!

The check in process was easy. The house was nice for our family coming in town for a graduation. Carmen was responsive to questions before check in. The house was cozy and clean. Check out instructions were also easy to follow. I have a very sensitive nose and the house had a slight dog smell. Nothing nasty, just the smell that a dog had been there. Overall this house is a great value for the money and very comfortable.

Perfect landing pad for seeing concerts at Blossom and in Cleveland! We especially appreciated the air conditioning given the heat and humidity when we were in town.

We needed a cozy spot on the north side of Akron for our cousin’s wedding and the location was perfect for our needs. The bedrooms were large and the beds were comfy. Having off street parking was handy due to a bit of snow. We appreciated that the owner had kept some of the original features and beautiful woodwork of the original home.

Nice long weekend

We enjoyed our long weekend in this quiet neighborhood house. Loved the Italian grocery just down the street. Location was fairly close to highway for easy access to Cleveland and Cuyahoga Valley NP.

I recently stayed here for my daughter's graduation at Kent State University. The home was decorated so nicely! It was well-equipped with toiletries and had a small coffee bar area. Additionally, there was a wonderful Italian market just a minute's walk from the house. I would definitely recommend this place for a stay.

Hidden gem

This house was everything our family needed . We had six adults and two children’s . They took great care to make sure they had little extras to make visiting family a great experience! They had a cute little coffee bar , lots of games for the kids to play. We would recommend this house tucked in a quiet neighborhood for any stay!

The property was just what we needed for our overnight stay. The only issue was the thermostat batteries were dead, it was 11pm when we contacted the host, Carmen replied promptly and Mike followed up with a phone call. We ended up removing batteries from the AC remote and put them in the thermostat. Who would have thought heat would be necessary in August.

Overall it was good. I had trouble getting into house with code. Owner responded quickly. I had a few other questions with no response. No dish cloth for kitchen or dish drainer. We only used two cups and didn’t want to run dishwasher for so little dishes. Instructions for check out via email versus what is on counter have some discrepancies as to where to leave towels and garbage. It would have made the stay nicer if there were chairs on the porch to sit on and if the porch was a little more tidy/clean.

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
The house is in significant disrepair. Kitchen window is falling off the frame, won’t close or lock. Another 1st floor window only locked at one end, easily pushed open. The latch just won’t catch. Front door locks but the wood is rotted, barely attached. Broken smoke detector. Rusted vent cover falling off the wall. Electrical outlets are poorly installed…etc. We did not feel safe there and left within a few hours. The house was also not super clean and smelled like a dirty dog. I’ve stayed in old houses, I don’t expect everything updated but windows that lock are non negotiable. VRBO was not helpful when we could not reach the host (it was after 10pm). Host finally replied to messages by 2pm the next day and said he would refund only my first night because we should have called at 7pm when the first guest arrived and he would have sent cleaners out. My daughter dropped her bags off at 7, and went to dinner. She was exhausted from driving, so decided to wait for me to deal with the house as I had rented it. How would a cleaning crew make this home safe in a few hours? Replace broken windows? We had to get hotel rooms for 6 people last minute which was a huge expense. Could be a great house with some care and repairs. I’m disappointed at host response.
First thing we saw. Window is off set, broken and won’t close.
Broken latch on the inside of the kitchen window.
Several outlets like this.
moldy shower seal need replaced.
